To all SSC Station occupants

Thank you for the donations over the past year (2024), it is much appreciated. I am still trying to figure out how to migrate the forums to another community software (probably phpbb) but in the meantime I have updated the forum software to the latest version. SSC has been around a while so their is some very long time members here still using the site, thanks for making SSC home and sorry I haven't been as vocal as I should be in the forums I will try to improve my posting frequency.

Thank you again to all of the members that do take the time to donate a little, it helps keep this station functioning on the outer reaches of space.

XBTF - no speech in Argonopedia?

Well, I desperately need help...I'm right before "destroy Xenon's Solar Power Plants" mission. I'm speaking with Ban Danna and I've received some information from Argonopedia about Xenon's Solar Power Plants. Better I should say "I think, this is about Xenon's SPP", because I doesn't hear any voice during this presentation! I see only video, but no voice! I don't know - this is normal or not? I'm playing XBTF (German version) from X-Superbox, version 2.2.6.2, but I've tested  English version 1.9.2.2 with the same effect. I thought, this can be caused by Windows XP, but I've installed this game under DOSBOX/WIN98SE and the effect is the same. I attach two savegames - X5 deu.sav is savegame from German XBTF 2.2.6.2 from X-Superbox and X5 eng.sav is savegame from English version XBTF 1.9.6.2.

Any help will be very appreciated. 🙂

Hello OSH I have tried to download your save game about 15 times now and just can't get it to download the last megabyte and I have no idea why Firefox won't do it. also tried M:E with the same result.

I was able to download your save game file and used it in the X Gold version of X-BTF English version 1.9 running on an XP system.

No problem with voices as I can hear what Ban Danna says then you are given the choices, will have a look at the superbox version when I find the box and disks.

PINBACK, but one important thing. Did you hear voice during Argonopedia movie about Xenon's SPP? Ban Danna voice I hear too.

And this is main problem - during Argonopedia you should hear voice. I think so at least... I must be 100% sure this silence is by purpose, and not by problems with operating system, sound driver/movie codec or something else...

There may never have been anything their as the X-Gold version I used your savegame in was released in 2000.

 

Although I would agree with you it dose seem strange that their is no voice over.

It's really strange. Maybe I should write directly to EGOSOFT (on official forum nobody want to help me)...

Yes, I did. One guy said, he had similar problem, but he don't know also where is the cause...

Not having played the game much do the rest of the Argonopedia have voice overs?.

I wouldn't play further until the problem will be solved. But in earlier part I saw also other movie from Argonopedia with voice...i'm sure, in this part must be voice over too...

 

--EDIT--

Now I'm sure, the voice is missing by mistake. Bernd Lehahn from EGOSOFT said, it is possible, the voice is here simply missing by mistake. So, the case is over (with unsatisfied way though).
